We are currently 40 percent dependant on foreign oil. As our energy needs increase our energy production decreases to the point that in about ten years time America will become 80 percent dependant on foreign oil. When that happens America will be subject to blackmail by the arab oil sheiks. They will demand that America take in millions of arab 'refugeee's over and above the present immigration levels. They will demand that Islam be taught in American schools (It is already being taught in some schools in California..children are asked to create their own jihads..).. They will continue to pressure America to demand that Israel commit suicide. They will also demand that America NOT retaliate for future terrorist attacks..That is what is coming if we don't become energy independant. Don't believe me.. Just take a look at Europe. Today Europe is 80 percent dependant on foreign oil and they don't even sneeze without first getting permission from the arab oil shieks..
Also, GW knows that Iran is the big threat now not Iraq. Iran is close to completing a nuclear reactor. Those crazy mullas are probably already figuring out ways to sneak nuke bombs into America. Instead of taking out that Iranian reactor, GW is going to take out Sadam just to settle and old family score.
GW also sucks up to the Saudi's who murdered 3,000 of our fellow citizens.
